HEE Response to DAUK’s Concerns about COS and BRP Delays for August 2022

DAUK was alerted by a significant number of doctors to delays in issuing Certificate’s of Sponsorship (COS) and Biometric Residence Permits (BRP).

They are having to give up offers of work, leaving hospitals and GP surgeries short staffed due to these unnecessary bureaucratic delays.
